Kestrel Pocket Wind Meter (1000)Here's the one that started it all! We developed the
Kestrel 1000 Pocket Wind Meter in 1995 when NK co-owner, Richard
Kellerman, needed a reliable wind meter for flying his glider. Over 10
years later, it looks a little slicker, and it still gives you the
reliable, accurate wind measurements that you need.

Every
Kestrel Meter features a large, 1” impeller mounted on a sapphire jewel
bearing, which means it starts rotating with the slightest puff of air
– 0.3 mph to be exact! And this unique impeller is user-replaceable,
too, which means it can easily be replaced if it is damaged or worn.
